TELL THE U.S. HOUSE: The FBI redacted “numerous references” to Trump in the Epstein Files.

Trump’s name is in the Epstein Files — and the Trump admin directed FBI
officials to redact his name from the documents.^1
This revelation has MAGA Republicans scrambling. Speaker Mike Johnson even
shut down the House to avoid a bipartisan vote on releasing the Epstein
Files, but Americans are still demanding transparency.^2 Many of Trump’s
supporters counted on the White House to fulfill Trump’s campaign promise
to release information on Epstein, and they’re enraged.
It’s critical that we continue to pressure the House to force a vote on
making the Epstein Files public, no matter how much Trump tries to hide or
claim the scandal is a “hoax.”^3

Reps. Ro Khanna and Thomas Massie are leading the discharge petition in
the House that would force a vote on releasing the Epstein Files if enough
Representatives sign on.^4 With every release of new information about
Trump’s inclusion in documents on Epstein’s crimes, this legislative push
gains more momentum.
Rep. Khanna said, “The bill that I introduced with Massie helped unravel
Trump and has sent him into a panic and has put us on the side of the
people and for accountability.”^5
And now speculation is growing that Trump is considering a full pardon for
Epstein’s accomplice, Ghislaine Maxwell, who was convicted of sex
trafficking.^6 Maxwell was moved to a lower security prison last week,
further fueling this speculation.^7
We need full transparency, not another round of Republican redactions,
delay tactics, and closed-door deals. The public deserves to know what’s
in the Epstein Files — including why Trump’s name showed up so many times
in the investigations.
